  • Issue 209 Music & Mornings Many Factors Determine the Amount of Music a Country Station Plays in Morning Drive
    September 13, 2010 Issue 209 Music & Mornings Many factors determine the amount of music a Country station plays in morning drive. The competitive situation, spot load, caliber of air talent and even a change in morning shows are among them. Most recently, PPM ratings have led a number of programmers to increase the amount of music heard between 6-10am. For purposes of this week’s study, we looked at a variety of market situations to see how many songs were played in morning drive on a Wednesday for the last 12 months (excluding December 2009). As always, all airplay information comes from our friends at Mediabase 24/7. Stand Alone PPM Markets KKGO/Los Angeles has added a couple of songs per hour in the Medal Heads: “Not bad for an old radio guy!” says WGH-FM/AM/Norfolk last three months.

  • Keyboard Playing and the Mechanization of Polyphony in Italian Music, Circa 1600
    Keyboard Playing and the Mechanization of Polyphony in Italian Music, Circa 1600 By Leon Chisholm A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Kate van Orden, Co-Chair Professor James Q. Davies, Co-Chair Professor Mary Ann Smart Professor Massimo Mazzotti Summer 2015 Keyboard Playing and the Mechanization of Polyphony in Italian Music, Circa 1600 Copyright 2015 by Leon Chisholm Abstract Keyboard Playing and the Mechanization of Polyphony in Italian Music, Circa 1600 by Leon Chisholm Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Berkeley Professor Kate van Orden, Co-Chair Professor James Q. Davies, Co-Chair Keyboard instruments are ubiquitous in the history of European music. Despite the centrality of keyboards to everyday music making, their influence over the ways in which musicians have conceptualized music and, consequently, the music that they have created has received little attention. This dissertation explores how keyboard playing fits into revolutionary developments in music around 1600 – a period which roughly coincided with the emergence of the keyboard as the multipurpose instrument that has served musicians ever since. During the sixteenth century, keyboard playing became an increasingly common mode of experiencing polyphonic music, challenging the longstanding status of ensemble singing as the paradigmatic vehicle for the art of counterpoint – and ultimately replacing it in the eighteenth century. The competing paradigms differed radically: whereas ensemble singing comprised a group of musicians using their bodies as instruments, keyboard playing involved a lone musician operating a machine with her hands.

  • Sacred Music Volume 103 Number 1
    Mission site, St. Augustine, Florida CHURCH MUSIC SINCE VATICAN II It is impossible to consider the future of Catholic church music without an understanding of the reasons for the recent reform and the situation which caused it. At one time the Church was the main influence on the development of music; she employed musicians on a large scale and inspired many great com­ posers. Today this has changed and musical patronage is largely the concern of the state and the broadcasting and recording companies. Inevitably, this has made the practice of liturgical music a bleak and uninviting task for most profes­ sional musicians. When one recalls the great Catholic composers of the past­ Palestrina, Byrd, Victoria, Dufay, Josquin-and also the great secular composers who wrote for the liturgy-Monteverdi, Mozart and Haydn-one can see the decline that has taken place. Immediately before the II Vatican Council contemporary Catholic music was largely uninspired and provoked little interest. Even the potential of a Catholic composer such as Elgar was left unexplored. The output of our musicians was slight in comparison with the period of the renaissance and it seemed that little MA WBY: CHURCH MUSIC 3 could be done to remedy the situation. The general standard of Catholic choirs was low. There were exceptions, but one can well remember when the Sunday sung Mass was usually avoided by most Catholics. Church music had to be endured and it had ceased to have any real contact with the ordinary Catholic. Music, whose main purpose is the communication of beauty, had by and large ceased to communicate.

  • A Study of Tyzen Hsiao's Piano Concerto, Op. 53
    A Study of Tyzen Hsiao’s Piano Concerto, Op. 53: A Comparison with Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2 D.M.A Document Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Lin-Min Chang, M.M. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2018 D.M.A. Document Committee: Professor Steven Glaser, Advisor Dr. Anna Gowboy Dr. Kia-Hui Tan Copyright by Lin-Min Chang 2018 2 ABSTRACT One of the most prominent Taiwanese composers, Tyzen Hsiao, is known as the “Sergei Rachmaninoff of Taiwan.” The primary purpose of this document is to compare and discuss his Piano Concerto Op. 53, from a performer’s perspective, with the Second Piano Concerto of Sergei Rachmaninoff. Hsiao’s preferences of musical materials such as harmony, texture, and rhythmic patterns are influenced by Romantic, Impressionist, and 20th century musicians incorporating these elements together with Taiwanese folk song into a unique musical style. This document consists of four chapters. The first chapter introduces Hsiao’s biography and his musical style; the second chapter focuses on analyzing Hsiao’s Piano Concerto Op. 53 in C minor from a performer’s perspective; the third chapter is a comparison of Hsiao and Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concertos regarding the similarities of orchestration and structure, rhythm and technique, phrasing and articulation, harmony and texture. The chapter also covers the differences in the function of the cadenza, and the interaction between solo piano and orchestra; and the final chapter provides some performance suggestions to the practical issues in regard to phrasing, voicing, technique, color, pedaling, and articulation of Hsiao’s Piano Concerto from the perspective of a pianist.

    Founded in 1874 by Norwegian Lutheran immi- grants, St. Olaf is a nationally ranked liberal arts college located in Northfield, Minnesota, approximately 70 km south of the Twin Cities of Minne- apolis and St. Paul, the largest metropolitan area in the upper Midwest. St. Olaf is home to 3,000 students from nearly every state in the country and more than 80 countries and offers 85-majors, concentrations, and academic programs. For more than half a century, St. Olaf students have taken advantage of international and off-campus study programs — including in Norway — that offer profound, life-changing experiences. Living and studying abroad is fundamental to understanding other cultures and perspectives and to becoming an educated citizen in a changing world. go.stolaf.edu I 1874 ble St. Olaf College grunnlagt av norske lutherske immigranter, og er i dag en høyt ansett liberal arts college. Skolen ligger i Northfield, Minnesota, ca 70 kilometer sør for tvillingbyene; Minneapolis og St. Paul, som er den største metropolen i den nordlige delen av midtvesten. St. Olaf huser 3,000 studenter fra nesten samtlige amerikanske stater, mer enn 80 land, og kan tilby over 85 ulike typer bachelorprogrammer og fagkonsentrasjoner. I nesten 50 år har St. Olaf studenter hatt stort utbytte av å ta del i internas- jonale utvekslingsprogrammer — blant annet i Norge — som skaper meningsfulle opplevelser og minner for livet. Verden er i rask endring, derfor er det å bo og studere i utlandet helt fundamentalt for å forstå andre kulturer og perspektiver, og på den måten bli en samfunnsorientert borger. 1 ST.
